Episode 395 – Don’t Turn Your Back on God
Sunday May 07, 2023
Sunday May 07, 2023
When the Paralytic admitted to Christ that he didn’t have anyone to help him enter the water and be healed, Christ healed him. When we entered the waters of our Baptism, Christ healed us. The Paralytic went and praised God after he was healed. Most of the time we go through life and ignore God. We have the chance to be healed at every Divine Liturgy when Christ offers us Holy Communion. Let’s not turn our back on God any longer. Let’s live prepared to receive Holy Communion, and live forever.

Episode 392 – God is Our Only King
Sunday Apr 09, 2023
Sunday Apr 09, 2023
Palm Sunday bridges Great Lent to Holy Week with a Feast about our King. The only problem is, just as the Jews then betrayed Christ during Holy Week, we betray Him everyday when we live as if we are our own king. This can be the year we change and allow Him to be our King, not just in word but in deed.

Episode 391 – Ask God to Strengthen Your Faith
Sunday Mar 26, 2023
Sunday Mar 26, 2023
A father brought his son to Christ saying, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a mute spirit…. So I spoke to Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could not.” (Mark 9.17-18) When Christ challenged his faith he said, “I believe. Help my unbelief.” (Mark 9.24) It was then that Christ healed his son. When we ask God for something, we won’t always get what we want, but we will always get what we need. When the father asked Christ to strengthen his faith, God gave him what he needed. Stop asking God for special treatment. Instead, ask God to strengthen your faith. Then you will have a better understanding what God wants for you.

We celebrate the Sunday of Orthodoxy with a grand celebration of Holy Icons. With great pride we hold our icons high, but the Sunday of Orthodoxy is much more than just a historic celebration. We are celebrating the truth of God. Holy Icons are proof that God came as a human being to save us. We have seen Him, and now we invite others to come and see Him too.

Episode 388 – Forgiveness, Fasting, and Giving; The Triad of Great Lent
Sunday Feb 26, 2023
Sunday Feb 26, 2023
As we prepare for Great Lent, it is crucial we forgive others. No matter what, if we do not forgive others, God will not forgive us. When we fast, without putting on a show, we learn to live as God wants us to live. When we give to others, we learn to put our treasure in heaven instead of on earth. Our salvation depends on these three elements that make up Great Lent. Forgiveness, fasting, and giving is the triad of Great Lent.

Sunday Feb 19, 2023
Sunday Feb 19, 2023
When we are judged by God, He will judge us not just by what we do, but how we see. Do we see God in the faces of others? Do we see God in the least of society? That is the challenge of Matthew 25.31-46. It isn’t just about serving others. It is about seeing God in them.
